Summer is heating up and so are the kid-friendly summer programs from LDPR’s clients! We’ve rounded up some of our favorites from resorts, hotels and cruise operators around the world with school officially out for the summer.

Curtain Bluff, Antigua

Curtain Bluff recently introduced its first free full-time kids camp (CeeBee Camp), offering the littles ones additional activities (all included!). CeeBee is centered around a shaded “basecamp” down on the calm-water beach, with activities ranging from chocolate-making to crab races, mocktail lessons at the bar to designing wind chimes.

Ocean Edge Resort & Golf Club, Brewster, MA

Ocean Edge Resort offers the ultimate family biking vacation on Cape Cod with new customized cruisers, perfect for tackling the car-free, relatively flat 26-mile Cape Cod Bike & Rail Trail. As the family mecca on the Cape, Ocean Edge also offers everything from outdoor and indoor swimming pools and 9 tennis courts to stand up paddle boarding and s’mores campfires on the private beach.

Frenchman’s Reef recently announced a great initiative for families looking to unplug and parents longing to take back vacation with the “Teen No-Tech Challenge.” Teens pledge to turn off their phones, tablets, iPads, etc. and explore island-life outdoor activities, including stand up paddle boarding, sailing, swimming with turtles, night kayaking and more.
